THE MISSION
ABOUT US
The purpose of the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Women's Consortium, Inc. (the Consortium), is to provide forums for discussion of women and community issues.
Such forums will consist of a biennial educational symposium with topics to include
women’s history, finance, work-life balance, health and wellness, entrepreneurship, art, music, culture, equity and leadership. In addition to the biennial symposium, the Consortium will conduct educational community outreach programs
in the above areas. The Consortium
steadfastly supports women’s education,
history, culture, leadership and equity.
The Elizabeth Cady Stanton Women's
Consortium, Inc. is supported by women’s organizations of Fulton and Montgomery Counties in collaboration with
Fulton-Montgomery Community College
(FM).
In 1848, The Declaration of Sentiments was
presented at Seneca Falls, New York. Its
author, Elizabeth Cady Stanton (born in
Johnstown, New York), modeled it after
the Declaration of Independence to throw
into sharp relief the failure
of a nation, founded on
the principles of democracy and equality, to live up
to its ideals and to challenge that nation to give
women all the rights and
responsibilities to which
they were entitled.

belong to us as citizens of these United

The Consortium welcomes all women to its
activities and symposia. By sharing our
knowledge and experience as well as developing social and professional networks,
we continue along the path which Stanton
made possible for us to walk. As Elizabeth
Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, and others have shown, momentous events can
happen from concerted efforts of a group.
